Living up to its hype, the Amitabh Bachchan-led Unforgettable Tour opened to an unprecedented response in Toronto, Canada. Billed as the biggest-ever Bollywood live show abroad, the three-hour inaugural kept the 10,000-strong audience at the Rogers Centre riveted.
Akshay Kumar and Preity Zinta too threw in equally brilliant performances in this song and dance extravaganza, as did Ritesh Deshmukh and Vishal Shekhar.
Opening the evening, Preity set the tone with a couple of breathtaking numbers, including Pretty woman (from her film Kal Ho Na Ho), before calling on stage the sexy and gorgeous and unforgettable dude, Abhishek.
However, the evening belonged to Akshay, who literally set the Rogers Centre on fire with his exciting and interactive performance. Having lived here on and off and known the pulse of the city, he opened with hit song from his yet-to-be released film Singh Is Kinng, followed by Dil da mamla hai dilbar and Tere roop di ho gayee balle, balle.
Abhishek popped up somewhere in the crowd and had to be escorted to the stage. Once on stage, he raised the tempo further by belting out hit songs from his films such as Dus and Bunty Aur Babli. His Dus bahane karke le gaye dil left his female fans hysteric. Old timers tapped their feet when he sang his father's Khai ke paan Banaras wala from Don. And as expected, Ash drove the audience crazy with her super hit Crazy kiya re. For his part, Big B had something for everyone - from Rang barse (Silsala) to Roop hai tera sona, sona (Kabhi Kushi, Kabhi Gham) to Kajra re (Bunty Aur Babli).
A virtual stampede broke out near the stage when he offered any girl to come on stage and sing a love song with him. Having chosen one, he offered her a gift box before singing with him. And when she unwrapped the box, out came a nightgown! Before the sheepishly smiling girl could recover, he wrapped his arm around her and launched into Bheegay honth tere from the film Murder.
